BOWL AMERICA REPORTS INCREASED SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS

Bowl America Incorporated today reported that fiscal year 2013 second quarter earnings increased to $.09 per share from $.07 per share in the prior year period.  The improvement resulted from reduced operating costs, primarily utilities and insurance.  Earnings for the current and prior year six-month periods were $.04 and $.02 per share, respectively.  Last year’s second quarter included the high-traffic period of Christmas through New Year’s Day.  The New Year’s holiday will fall in this year’s third quarter.

The Company has a long history of building reserves and carrying no debt.  In December 2012, after reviewing those reserves and possible changes in the federal tax rate on dividends, the Company paid a special dividend of $.50 per share.  The funding for this dividend was from Retained Earnings on which the Company has already paid income taxes ranging from 34% to as high as 51%.  Additionally, the third quarter regular dividend of $.165, usually paid in February, was paid in December 2012.
.
Bowl America operates 19 bowling centers and its Class A Common Stock trades on the NYSE MKT Exchange with the symbol BWLA.  A more detailed explanation of results is available in the Company’s S.E.C. Form 10-Q filing, available at the Company’s web site www.bowlamericainc.com.
